The UK has over 100 degree awarding institutions resulting in a highly competitive and complicated market for students assessing their study options from abroad. It is for this reason that it has compiled the top 10 reasons for studying at LIBT and Brunel University:

1. Quality
LIBT is accredited by the British Accreditation Council. In addition Brunel has over 40 years of research and teaching excellence and was recently ranked 42/120 in the Sunday Times League Tables published in September 2003.

2. Three Semester Fast-track system
The scheduling of three semesters per year is another example of LIBT's innovative educational approach. LIBT students are able to fast track their studies and enter second year university ahead of other students in the traditional two semester system. Intakes occur in January, May and September each year.

5. Small class sizes
LIBT  guarantees that no academic class has more than 40 students. Small class sizes ensure that students receive a high level of personalized attention from the teacher and also mean that classes are conducted more like tutorials than typical University lectures.
